This is a good Bible for reading and study, Ryrie's notes are well researched, although they don't delve as deep into historical detail as say, John Macarthur's. Ryrie offers ideas on more applicability in many cases, which is nice, depending on the person. I personally prefer the more historical notes, but I didn't get Macarthur's NASB Study Bible because either his name or a huge cursive "M" is on every page. Boy, somebody has an ego...
Anyway, the problem with this Ryrie Study Bible is that the book itself is of poor quality. The leather is almost certainly an imitation, being hard and vinyl-like, and my copy was bound slightly crooked, so when closed there is a noticable difference in the position of the pages and the cover. It is also as if the pages are too many for this cover. Near the spine the book bulges, like the number of pages barely fit. This may be a problem with my copy only, but I can't say for sure. Just in case it is not just my copy, I am warning everyone. |
